  • Complete reports generated for flexion, extension, adduction, abduction, and rotation of extremities.
  • Joint moment and power graphs which can be displayed in the body-centered or laboratory coordinate system.
  • Complete reports produced for tilt, rotation, lateral flexion, and obliquity for trunk and pelvic data.
  • Temporal data such as velocity, cadence, stride time, and body support times are reported.
  • Force plate dynamics and EMG graphs reported with appropriate kinematic data, including stick figure views.
  • Ensemble averages which can be applied to multiple trials of one patient or to groups for the generation of norms.
  • Left and right foot gait events reported which include heel-strike, toe strike, and toe-off.
This Gait lab features a 17 metre runway up the centre of the lab with two force plates in variable positions set into the floor. These can accomodate all gaits from a slow walk to a sprint.
